[LOTR Universe @Lordoftheringsu]

Ancalagon the Black was the greatest of Morgoth's Dragons, and the mightiest winged fire-dragon that ever existed. 🔥

Ancalagon the Black’s name in Sindarin is often interpreted as “the Biting Storm,” though he is most famously remembered as the greatest of Morgoth’s fire-drakes. During the War of Wrath, Ancalagon dealt devastating blows to the host of the Valar. He did not fight alone, but led a vast brood of dragons, great and small, that brought ruin from the skies.

Yet their dominion over the air was broken when Eärendil came against them aboard his flying ship, Vingilot, alongside Thorondor, lord of the Eagles. Eärendil bore with him the light of a Silmaril, and with its radiance they gained the upper hand against Morgoth’s dragons. After a battle that endured for a day and a night, Ancalagon the Black was cast down by Eärendil, and many of the dragons that flew with him were likewise destroyed. When Ancalagon fell, his ruin was so vast that it shattered the towers of Thangorodrim above Angband.

It is said that the fire of Ancalagon was of such heat that it might have been able to melt even the One Ring. Yet Gandalf made clear that no fire of dragon, however great, could unmake it; for the One Ring could only be destroyed in the fires of Mount Doom, where it was forged.

With the defeat of Morgoth’s armies upon the earth, and the fall of Ancalagon and his dragons in the sky, Angband was overthrown, and Morgoth was cast into the Void beyond the world. After this, dragons were seldom seen for many long years. With the death of Smaug, the last of the great dragons known in later ages, it is often believed that their kind at last passed from Middle-earth.

I think the predictions for $TOSHI are actually severely underpriced..

Been doing alot of SEO research on Toshi and something really stood out to me.

Toshi is on the verge of becoming a global brand, this is something that transcends CT or random TG groups.

Allow me to explain here:

There's a phenomena on tokens that transcend the KOL network and seem to just pump with a mind of their own.

The cleanest example of this to me is $FLOKI, a meme from 2021. You wouldn't know it based of your CT follows, but it's consistently 100m+ daily volume and above 1 billion mcap.

How is a meme 4 years old still pulling in these numbers? Well it's actually quite simple, Floki is a global brand and retail friendly asf.

Looking at their SEO, it's pristine. They're listed on all the biggest exchanges, they have a massive reddit community, and they have a strong normie appeal.

Did you know that $TOSHI has the largest reddit community on Base? Did you know it has the largest reddit community of any cat token out there?

Toshi is bridging the gap in REAL TIME with retail. Apart from myself, @DopeOxide and @MacroCRG there aren't really any big CT accounts talking about it.. Yet it's consistently pulling 25-30m+ daily volume.

Like it or not, X is not the mouthpiece of retail. The average person does not have a cartoon PFP or nft pfp, they dont care to tweet our or retweet. What they will do is talk about their favorite token on reddit, buy and hold is the method for them.

Being on Coinbase is a huge edge for Toshi, I believe we're close to seeing an insane breakout based off all the social media metrics im seeing. Throw binance and RH into the picture then things get really insane.

Not going to put out my own predictions, I will keep that to my own mind. But I will say this..

Much higher.

Found this recently. All of these tips are actually really good.

Getting cooked by this type of hooper will have you rethinking everything but bro is actually tuff 😂🔥

While the West chases 3nm hype, China quietly took over the legacy chip supply that actually runs the modern world. This is the part no one’s talking about. 🧵

[Coco @CocosLair]

There is so much I want to say regarding everything that has been happening in our industry, about the grifting that goes on - but for now I'll refrain as I believe it's not in the best interest of myself, Toshi, or the industry for me to publicly disclose many of the things that I have shared behind closed doors.
This industry really needs some cleaning up and it'd be really good to see a group of people find their way to jail for years - to the point that they turn on others that are doing dirty stuff, allowing us to clean up the industry so damn fast that new grifters will think twice before committing similar crimes.

One of the reasons I stepped into Toshi as hard as I did - while I had no financial motive to do so - was to show that a token CAN succeed with zero marketing, no free tokens to KOLs. Everything purely built by the community. When we did 1 Billion dollars of volume per day shortly after our listing on @coinbase, we barely saw any large accounts speaking about $TOSHI. That should be the clearest sign to you that all most of those accounts do is shill their bags so you can buy what they're selling. Sometimes they'll align themselves with the tickers that are hot to generate a larger following.

I say all this because if there is ever a token that deserves to be "the Shib of this cycle", it truly is Toshi. Imagine a token taking the entire industry by storm while all the insiders and pumpndumpers are completely sidelined? Any more glorious feeling?

No idea if any of the above makes any sense, I just woke up to feed a crying baby and am about to jump back in bed - just got super frustrated by reading my timeline. Maybe I should just throw my phone in a locked safe until 8am each day as soon as I go to bed.

[EnigmaFunge @EnigmaFund]

If you're a meme and want to have the slightest hope of every getting listed on @coinbase sort out:

1. Your legal incorporation. Operating co in Delaware/ Singapore + foundation in Cayman + BVI
2. Legal opinion letter
3. Don't have a cabal token - the legal and compliance team aren't idiots
4. Run a clean ship
5. Especially Base memes: Utility
6. AWESOME community and holders

$TOSHI is a masterclass in execution. It was not easy. We did the work. We were POUND smart and penny foolish. Not the other way around. CTOs hit differently. You have less to work with, so you have to be focused and impeccable.

There are other items. I suggest studying this closely.

[Fullmetal Autism @divineins1ght]

Misery loves company and bears are real needy lately

Yet, when I open up @coinbase app

I see that $TOSHI is still among the top 10 (for spot) trade vol

Beating $DOGE to the spot, mind you

We fine, good things are coming

Cheers

[morrígu @morrigu_9]

$toshi is in the top ten spot trading volume on @coinbase, ahead of $doge, $link, $pepe, $bonk & $wif.

& we're on the verge of what is historically a golden altszn, during the most pro-crypto administration the usa has ever seen.

don't get shaken out.

higher.

[Based Prophet @BasedProphetic]

After the new ATH record of $950M done by @Toshi_base I noticed that a lot of people were coping very hard.

So much hate and longing to see $toshi fail and "go to zero".
I even saw some people hoping for a brutal dump after the coinbase listing.

Why is the blue cat attracting so much envy?

1) Jeeting culture

Some early buyers sold way too early on the ascent. Probably they stop believing in something.
Or they could not imagine $toshi reaching its past ATH of $260M.
So selling around 150M or 230M seems like the "rigth thing".

I don't want to blame them, 2024 was harsh from early Q2 to end of Q4. I was there and we were down bad.
But I saw that this hard period shaped the $toshi team.

@CocosLair @arkham_exe and many bull posters like @basedfloyd888 were pushing very hard. On utility, community, and brand.
People kept pushing and holding firm.
I think that the jeeters were not engaged enough with the community. They didn't see this non quantifiable energy.

Today those jeeters are probably feeling like early sellers of SHIB. And the time will amplify this feeling.
I have empathy for them, they suffer like the community but they left before reaping the rewards.
They are expressing their pain by hating, fudding, and hoping for the downfall of the chosen one.

2) Top PTSD & bitcoin cycle
I think that the solana trenches created a lot of PTSD, and now even experienced players are calling top at any X10 events. But the real issue is that People don't understand how deeply true is the bitcoin cycle. They know about halving, not about all of it's implications.

Smarter people than me like @pure_patience @smileycapital or @intuitio_
Are explaining this again and again in detail

tldr:
All past tops were Q4 of the year "after the US election" which is the same year of the halving.

December 2013
December 2017
November 2021

I'm not saying that we'll experience the same thing this time again. But it'll rhyme.
Why ?
Because people don't ever learn, madness of crowd, supply shock and satoshi clockworks.

I'll add that with so much bullish catalyst calling top now is just PTSD.

3) hate of $ETH

My last point is a more global crypto point.

First some facts: @Toshi_base being on @base it's directly impacted by $ETH.
And our industry is filled with retarded, unable to understand basic strategic facts.

So if 2025 is 2021, 2024 is 2020.
Ok, I must admit that the price action of $ETH in 2024 was lukewarm. But look at 2020, does it sound like it went ballistic before the end of the year? No

The overall sentiment of CT about $ETH is just insanely bearish.
I get that the EF has a lot in common with google.

But c'mon, guys please wake up and start looking beyond 1W charts.

$ETH is the most deeply marketed crypto ecosystem in the world. Think about any "institutional" narrative other than digital gold. And ETH is the leader.

No wonder there is an $ETH ETF and not any altcoin ETF (this will probably change in the future).

Any corporate doing something with crypto is either on ETH or with an L2.

@BlackRock is lobbying hard to start tokenization on $ETH and they already have a dedicated fund.

People like @Sony have an L2,
President $TRUMP has a DeFi project (buying $ETH as if there is no tomorrow).
Even Systemic banks like BNP Paribas are issuing hundreds of million $ worth of bonds on ETH.

ETH won the Defi/RWA/Tokenization game already.
The only people looking for alternatives are crypto natives.

The current bank system runs on a 60-year-old programming language (FORTRAN) and is closed 1/4 of the time.

They don't care about your "faster blockchain".
They just want to use the equivalent of AWS for crypto.

Solidity, EVM and $ETH are a tech standard today.

The domination of this standard is so deep, that It'll be impossible to sell any L1 to institutional and "serious people".
Because they already have a standard. Corporates, States, and institutional just want to use standards. That's why they are still using Microsoft, IBM and cisco products.

$ETH ecosystem is the standard used in every fucking blockchain initiative. institutional spent billions in R&D, training, and corporate masturbation. To make it the starter stack.

And then you have people explaining to you that $ETH is going to zero.

Again it shows how narrow-minded are crypto dorks.

Now where is being built the future of ETH ?
It's on @base the leading L2.
Who is the face of @base ? it's $toshi
$toshi will go to billions

tldr:
People hating on $toshi have skill issues

[Cavell Anderson @cavellanderson]

$Brett Community PISSED After $Toshi Coinbase Listing! The REAL @base King! 100X Memecoin Incoming!!!

Who should be the face of Base?
TOSHI vs BRETT

[Tricky 🟦😼 @BasedTricky]

A year ago, I posted my thesis about why $TOSHI will be the first @base meme listed from @coinbase. It's pinned on my profile if you don't believe me.

A year from now, I'm telling you that people will remember AND will never forget $TOSHI's face melting run.

I fully believe we'll see $TOSHI touch 5b by the end of February. This volume is telling a story that hasn't been told for years in crypto.

Pin this and @ me if I'm wrong. Study $SHIB.

Believe in something.

[KOSHI @KOSHIIIII69]

For once in this industry, it’s not the KOLs who won, but you, us, the community.

I’d love $TOSHI for the rest of my life.

[Beth Amphetamine @SexyJeffersin]

21% OF ALLLLLL THE BASE VOLUME IS FROM 1 COIN, RIGHT NOW.... $TOSHI.
It actually broke Coinbase. And the amount of whale purchases broke my TG. lol

BINANCE IS DEFINITELY WATCHING!
@binance you can't ignore this. No way.

[Beth Amphetamine @SexyJeffersin]

21% of ALL THE $BASE VOLUME is coming from ONE. FUCKING. COIN.

$TOSHI.

Sell your bullshit $SOL trash coins, and buy into $TOSHI now.

Lost money on $TRUMP? That's ok. Put the rest into $TOSHI and get it all back.

#MELANIA fucked you, but not in a good way? Get into $TOSHI

$BRETT on the downtrend? It's fine. Get into $TOSHI make some money back. Do what you will with it.

I REPEAT. $TOSHI 21% OF ALL BASE VOLUME

[EnigmaFunge @EnigmaFund]

Not the first time.

For a good period of time the majority of @base liquidity and TVL was driven by $TOSHI.

Now it’s happened again. Only this time almost a BILLION dollars of volume on @coinbase

What happens when @BASE and @coinbase finally announce the fact:

TOSHI IS THE FACE OF BASE.

It single-handily catapulted the MCAP of every meaningful Base token this weekend.

[XD @smileyXBT]

$TOSHI is currently ranked #12 worldwide in total trading volume, boasting an impressive $1.4 billion.
